While I had been in the midst of creating a different blog, an urgent request came from one of my clients that redirected my energy for the couple of weeks. The question was simple; What should we use in our small business a XOOM tabled or the new IPAD 2. While it seems like a simple question, both products are brand new to the market, which could only mean one thing..time for a research

According to the CDC, in the majority of the country, nearly one-third of the population gets no physical exercise beyond going to work every day, and for a great many others, the closest they get to real physical activity is going out to watch some sporting event. It would seem that in today’s society, it is just easier to watch someone else doing something, or watching “reality” shows about

Have you ever noticed that people who are successful seem to become more successful? As we experience success, our confidence builds giving us the strength to reach further. As a coach this is why I always suggest that my clients tackle smaller projects first to get some successes. Build on those successes to create even greater ones. Success and confidence go hand in hand and they build

In my previous post I wrote about Procrastination. Like all people, I too have had those areas of procrastination, and one of the big ones for me has been getting in shape and really taking care of myself.

While a coach can never guarantee the success of any client we work with, I think we can all 100% guarantee one thing: Procrastination will kill your dreams. Every week as I coach clients, present seminars, and work with people who say they want to improve their lives, I am amazed by how often good people who know exactly what they need to do choose to do absolutely NOTHING.
